Soundcraft Announces Going Live Course for February 2006
Soundcraft has announced the dates for its next highly popular Going Live training course, which is held in conjunction with Adlib Audio of Liverpool and some of the UK’s top tour-sound engineers.
Going Luve 06 takes place from February 20th-22nd at the Liverpool Community College. Monday 20th is an optional ‘Intro’ day, essentially a pre-cursor for the main event held over the 21st and 22nd, and acts
as a basics of live sound refresher, ideal for people relatively new to live sound engineering as a career or interest.
The main course covers all the main subjects of live sound, from microphone and loudspeaker placement to front-of-house and monitor mixing. This next course includes a new topic, ‘Managing Wireless
Microphone Systems’. As well as providing course tutoring, the engineers on the course are on hand to answer questions and provide tips on how they mix live sound in the real world.
The engineers expected to be tutoring include ‘Big Mick’ Hughes, perhaps most famous for his work with Metallica, Jon Burton (who has toured with Radiohead, Echobelly, Stereo MC's and Brian Ferry), and
Adlib’s own Andy Dockerty (Texas) and Dave Kay (Scissor Sisters, David Bowie).
This course is expected to sell out fast (places are extremely well priced at £180 for the two days, plus £30 for the Intro day), so early booking is highly recommended. All participants will receive a free copy of the Audio Engineering for Sound Reinforcement book, written by John Eargle and Chris Foreman for JBL ($50 value) and a copy of Soundcraft’s popular ‘Guide to Mixing’ DVD at the end of the course.
